Natural Gas Use in Texas and Unconventional Hydrocarbon Production

Natural gas is a relatively abundant, domestic fuel that is clean at its end-use. If natural gas can be produced in a way that is compatible with society’s environmental objectives, and if the latest resource estimates are accurate, then natural gas represents an important part of the fuel mix. This one-day event discusses the feasibility of increased usage of natural gas in the power, transportation and residential sectors in place of more carbon-intensive fuels.
